GOOD TO KNOW
Morse Elementary Senior Scholarship Every year Morse PTO awards a $1,000 scholarship to a graduating senior who attended Morse Elementary for a minimum of 3 years. Do you know a graduating senior who may want to apply? Seniors can read more about eligibility criteria here and download an application here. The deadline for the scholarship is March 26, 2021. Do You Know an Incoming Kindergartener? Morse administrators and staff are already preparing for next school year. At this time the school district is seeking to determine approximate numbers for kindergarten next year as well as gather contact information to reach kinder guardians about important upcoming registration dates and activities. Please fill out this Kindergarten Pre-Registration Form if you have an incoming kindergartener, or pass along the information if you know someone who will have a kinder Marksman next year. Kindergarten Round-Up will take place virtually on April 9, 2021. |

SAVE THE DATE
Spirit Night for Morse Elementary at Tropical Smoothie Cafe--February 9, 2021 Join us on February 9th from 5:00-8:00pm at the Tropical Smoothie Cafe at 14883 W. 151st Street in Olathe to raise money for Morse. Tropical Smoothie Cafe has an app you can download for easy ordering and carrying out options. We appreciate your support of the Morse PTO! Valentine's Day Class Parties--February 12, 2021 While parents and guardians will not be attending classroom Valentine's Day parties, your help still may be needed. Be on the lookout for emails from your child’s teacher to see how you can assist. Donations of food, drinks, napkins, crafts, and other supplies not only help make these celebrations a success, but also ease the burden on our teachers. Be aware that those classrooms doing valentines may request you send in a valentine box and valentines days before the party so that they may sit before going home with students. Spirit Night for Morse Elementary at Chipotle--March 30, 2021 Whether you want to dine in or order online and carry out, make the Chipotle at 8301 W 151st St in Overland Park part of your dinner plans on March 30th. Stay tuned for more information soon. Help raise money for Morse Elementary while enjoying a night off from cooking! |
It's a great day to be a Marksman!
